Well, someone made things work for them I guess. Actually, I understand the idea behind it. As a taller guy I have decided I will one day have one up high or out of the ceiling. Gonna try for the fancy non hillbilly look though.

I guess just removing or drilling out the flow restrictor was too complex?

Needs more duct tape.
Edit: Also need insulation on the PVC pipe to keep the water hot on its long trip to the shower head. |

Looks like the rig one of our clients put in King Fahd's private 747 back in the 1980s
Fahd was something like 6'7" and hated stooping in the shower to get wet 747s have only got so much room to work with Yeah, it cost millions |

Quoted: It’s worse than that, I didn’t even glue the pipe together, just pressed everything together. Leased rental, so everything has to go back to original when I leave.

Sometimes you have to soak showerheads in vinegar to get them unclogged and at full capacity. Hard water

I have replaced the standard shower pipe with a longer curved one. They have been around for some 30 years now
OP please paint that pvc silver to match |

i like it. but it looks a little tacky. probably should paint it.

Well, I'm not going to say that it's ugly. But it's certainly not attractive.

Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

It was well worth it. We put one of those large rain head type shower head on |

Got any other pictures of custom hillbilly installations you have done, you may be a candidate for Better Homes and Gardens.

I can't say shit, I built a monstrosity out of 1/2" brass to raise the shower head in my bathroom at my parents place while I was in college. My dad saw it and got all pissed off about how it looked like shit....then proceeded to do the same to thing in his and mom's shower a week later after using it
